Will taking 25mg of topomax daily for headaches will it affect my chances of getting contact lenses. i have an astigmatism in both eyes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No it will not: It will not affect your ability to get contact lenses. However, just a reminder, when you are on topamax (topiramate) you need to be drinking eight glasses of fluid the day so as not to develop kidney stones. You must absolutely avoid dehydration.
